This ratio is based on colony size, not hive count, so a stronger colony needs more strips than a smaller one. **Q: How long do I leave Apivar 2.0 strips in the hive?** A: Leave strips in place for 6 to 10 weeks. For best contact with mites, scrape off wax and propolis and reposition the strips in the brood area at the midpoint of treatment. **Q: Can I use Apivar 2.0 with honey supers on the hive?** A: Supers should be off during active treatment. Apivar 2.0 has no required withholding period afterward, so supers can go back on right after you remove the strips. **Q: When is the best time to treat with Apivar 2.0?** A: Spring and fall, during periods of active bee activity, are ideal windows. Apivar 2.0 has no temperature restriction, so outdoor temps aren't a factor in timing your treatment. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Apuvar mite strips *by B***A on July 31, 2026* Looks to be doing the job in preventing/removing mite infestation in the hives ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ok *by S***G on July 13, 2026* Nice but make sure you know there are only 2 in the package ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good *by B***E on July 14, 2026* Great product ## Frequently Bought Together - Apivar Strips Varroa Mite Treatment for Honey Bees with Easy Rip Strips - 97-99% Effective Againts Mites (12 Pack) - Foxhound Bee Company Varroa Easy Check Mite Tester - The #1 Mite Checker Among Beekeepers for Accurately Testing Mite Counts - Pollen Patties for Honey Bees - 2lb (2x1lb) Bee Food with 15% Real USA Pollen, Full Dose of Hive Alive Concentrate, Seaweed Micronutrients, and Amino Acids to Improve Colony Health, Brood --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/531014563-apivar-2-0-amitraz-strips-for-varroa-mite-control-4](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/531014563-apivar-2-0-amitraz-strips-for-varroa-mite-control-4) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
